CadentiaFor language teachers
A language assistant for every student.
Your students talk with it every week, on topics you set. You see exactly what they get wrong, and teach straight to it.
What it does for your class
Every student speaks.
Conversations and speaking prompts on their phones, on your topics, with corrections as they go. The quiet ones too.
You teach directly.
It tells you the mistakes your class makes most. One tap puts them on the board for your next lesson.
You see results.
Who spoke, how much, and which mistakes keep coming back — something to show your department and parents.
For department heads and schools
What a language assistant does for one class, for every class.
Start with a pilot in a few classes. Your teachers keep control of what students practise, and you see how much every class is speaking.
Answers for your IT lead and your AI policy
Schools are right to ask. Here is what is true today, in plain terms.
Voice is not stored
Speech is processed live and discarded. We keep the text transcript, not the audio.
No training, no selling, no ads
We do not train AI models on student conversations, sell data or use it for advertising. Our AI providers are used under terms that do not allow them to train on it.
You choose what students practise
The teacher sets the prompts. The AI listens in the language being studied and points out mistakes; it is not a general chatbot for students to use however they like.
Schools can delete
Deleting an account removes its data immediately. Where a school holds the relationship, we return and delete school data on request or at the end of a pilot.
Why we built this
I learned Italian by listening to music. I'd pull new words from the lyrics, track them in an Excel sheet, and review them on a schedule — then phrases from conversation, then corrections from every tutor. The file became the system; the system became the language.
At university I ran the Italian Students Association and started a biweekly language café — espresso machine in the library, a couple of hours where students could speak and stay in the language. It filled a gap the curriculum couldn't reach. Every faculty member I've spoken to since has run something similar, on top of teaching, on top of grading, on their own time.
Then I went to Mexico to learn Spanish — no spreadsheet, just people. Spanish came in fast and Italian quietly fell apart. Once you can hold a conversation, nobody corrects you. Your mistakes fossilise. Cadentia is what I needed in all three rooms: the patience of the spreadsheet, the pressure of the conversation, the everyday space of a language café. We work directly with language faculty, not through resellers.

You teach. We drill.
Common questions
Which languages?
Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese and English. If you teach another, mention it on a call.
What do students need?
A phone or laptop with a microphone and a browser. They join with the class code or link; there is nothing to install.
Will this replace the teacher?
No. The assistant gives every student speaking practice between lessons, on topics you set, and shows you what to teach next. You direct it; culture, context and knowing when a student needs a different push stay with you.
What does it cost?
Setting up and trying a class is free. School pilots are arranged with us directly, so talk to us.
